There’s no better place to be a sports fan than in Massachusetts, and with spring in the air, whether it’s a Bruins, Celtics, or most recently, a Sox game, there’s a sports spectating opportunity for all kinds of fans.

So, if you’re looking for a sporting experience outside of our well-renowned, championship-winning professional teams, here’s a roundup of upcoming activities, and sporting experiences that stretch across the state:

NCAA Men’s Volleyball Championships, April 26-28 at MIT

UPDATE! Due to the recent events in Boston, it was determined to be in the best interests of all involved for the championship competition to be moved to a new location.
